THE ALLISON, RUSS AND PEERS COLLECTION

Detail of lot 27 11

THE A LL I S ON, R U SS A ND PE E RS COLLE CT ION

ot so much a collection as an accumulation with many influences: a large Victorian family of Congregationalists and Anglicans, Great aunts, Great uncles and cousins and their progeny scattered worldwide, hence the title of this collection. The 1939-1945 war swept me up into a delightfully eccentric education in the country, beating for the shoot and sawing logs for the big house rather than team games. Had it been peacetime school would have been in suburban London. Later, at Bishop’s Stortford College, a nonconformist foundation, we had remarkable freedom. My house-master was Walter Strachan q.v., poet, sketcher, translator of French and Italian novels, calligrapher, collector and author of seminal books on Les Livres d’Artiste and sculpture in parkland, sower of seeds and friend of some Dorset worthies, especially Sylvia Townsend Warner. My father, ironically, gained his sense of freedom from travel in the Royal Navy in the 1914-1918 world war, and was a brilliant organiser of holidays in England in wartime, and on the Continent from 1948. His father filled his house with pictures, and from him I caught the bug. Other influences – National Service in Korea, Oxford, Johann Sebastian Bach, in Dorset the Brown family of musicians, and a wide band of friends and dogs and, indeed, Dorset folk from the prehistoric to the present. A major influence, of course, that rare animal a private County Museum which belongs to and has been run by the Dorset Natural History and Archaeological Society since 1928, with a membership in the 1970s, ’80s and early ’90s, larger than that of any other county society in England, embracing geology, natural history, archaeology, local history, literature and the arts, with a membership whose knowledge, experience and wisdom is available to help and guide a minute professional staff. If I had a motto it would be one of Walter Strachan’s – “Not on the Syllabus” I am thankful for the freedom to have accumulated a small collection, part of which is now to be dispersed. Roger Peers

5STANHOPE

Provenance: Acquired in the 1980's in Causwayhead, Penzance.

This composition bears a striking resemblance to a fully signed watercolour study by Forbes, featuring what appears to be the same model in the same location.

The sitter appears to be Annie Blewett, who was also the subject of one of Forbes's most celebrated works 'The Harbour Window' which was painted in the upstairs sitting room of the Ship Inn in Mousehole, Cornwall, to which Blewett lived next door.

Given the curvature of the harbour wall and the headland beyond, it is a fair assumption that this work was also undertaken in Mousehole.

The date of this unfinished canvas is based on a visit by Coldstream's friend Dr John Rake to Canford School during the summer of 1942, where he spend a week to recover from jaundice. Rake had known Coldstream since his Slade student days when Rake was studying medicine at UCL. Rake recalls Coldstream making a start on this picture then.

This still life was painted at Canford School near Wimborne where Coldstream was invited to become an art master on the recommendation of Kenneth Clarke to the Headmaster, Reverend Clifford Canning. Coldstream did not take up the post, but became friends with the family and painted the portraits of both Mrs Enid Canning (1938) and The Reverend Canning (1946-8). This study clearly demonstrates Coldstream's system of building up applied patches of colour.

According to the Late Dr. John Rake, this powerful unfinished portrait was painted by Coldstream in Rake's house in Shenington, nr. Banbury, Oxfordshire. Sittings began on 17th September and ended on 29th November 1945. The 24 sittings came to an end on account of Bellani being repatriated. Dr. Rake was the attending medical officer at the Horely POW Camp and arranged for the sittings. Sergeant Major Bellani cycled freely the five miles from the camp to Shenington on account that he was no longer an enemy alien.

Works from the Studio of Geoffrey Burnand

A Collection of works from the Studio of Geoffrey Burnand Geoffrey Burnand (1912 – 1997), was an English painter, theatrical designer and mural artist. Geoffrey studied at Farnham School of Art, Farnham under the Principal Otway McCannell, A.R.A. R.B.A. from 1929 through to 1931. He went on to study at the Royal Academy Schools under the tutelage of Sir Walter Thomas Monnington from 1931 to 1932. Winning the prestigious British Prix de Rome award (Painting Category) in 1932, at the age of 20, provided Geoffrey with a scholarship to the British School at Rome. He studied the history and techniques of the Old Masters at the BSR from 1933 to 1935. The Prix de Rome award, in addition to providing a scholarship to the British School at Rome, also provided Geoffrey with the funds to make several study trips to Germany in the early-mid 1930s. It was on these trips he discovered the works of the German expressionist artists George Grosz, Franz Marc and Max Beckmann, the latter of whom he met in person during a trip to Berlin. He found considerable stimulus in their work and the influence of it latterly informed much of his own. He lived at Bordon, Hampshire after the war and later moved to Little Baddow, Essex. This collection of paintings were purchased by the vendor from the studio of Geoffrey Burnand.

636 Gillows of Lancaster/Waring and Gillows: Four elaborate cast panels possibly part of an exhibition stand, with a spurious founding date of 1695 and mounted with copies of awards from international exhibitions between 1851 and 1900. Originally two uprights approximately 114” x 26”.

See illustration

£2,000-4,000

The Great Exhibition of 1851 was a remarkable ground-breaking event which set the tone for a series of international exhibitions across the globe that flourished until the early part of the 20th century, and still continue to this day. Gillows of Lancaster were one of a number of first-rate manufacturing companies to provide work of the highest calibre for these exhibitions. These elements of what must have been a large and impressive display stand of some sort include copies of the medals that Gillows were awarded at these exhibitions. From London in 1851 to Paris in 1900, there are awards from exhibitions in London, Paris and Brussels. These panels seem to date from after 1903 when the firm became Wring and Gillows, and before the First World War when the Art nouveau elements of the design might have been considered unfashionable. It is not clear exactly which event this display was created for, the years between 1903 and 1914 were rife with exhibitions, perhaps London in 1908 or Ghent in 1913. Discovered recently in storage in Liverpool, the home of Warings, it is quite possible that they have remained undisturbed for many years. 637-641 Spare lots 148

Duke’s AUCTIONEERS SINCE 1823

Glossary of Cataloguing Terms The auctioneers are always pleased to discuss individual lots with prospective purchasers prior to the auction and will provide condition reports on request. If you require clarification of any terms employed in the catalogue please do not hesitate to seek advice. The auctioneers are also pleased to discuss lots which may have been altered, repaired, or restored. The term basically used in conjunction with a date (ie. basically 18th century) indicates that, in our opinion, the item may have undergone restoration, repair, or alteration. It also indicates that only an element of the piece may date from the period stated in the description. The absence of the term basically does not imply that an item is without restoration, repair, or alteration. The use of inverted comas around a word or phrase (ie. “pearl”) indicates that the piece, or object, may not be what it is purporting to be. (ie. a simulated pearl). If you are in doubt our specialists are available prior to the auction to offer guidance and advice. With Chinese ceramics and works of art, if the catalogue states that the object in question bears a mark, but it does not state “and of the period” it indicates that we believe the lot in question may not date from the period suggested by the mark. Clearly, references to the colour of jade are subjective and again buyers are advised to inspect personally any items on which they intend to bid to ensure the colour meets with their expectation. Care is taken to ensure that any statement as to authorship, attribution, origin, date and provenance is reliable and accurate, but all such statements of opinion and are not to be taken as statement or representations of fact. Hy. Dukes & Son reserve the right, in forming their opinion, to consult and rely upon any expert or authority reasonably considered by them to be reliable. Descriptions of property in this catalogue do not always indicate condition, repair or damage. Buyers are earnestly advised to inspect personally any lot they intend to purchase. Weights and measurements are approximate and should be verified by intending purchasers

Paintings, Drawings and Prints A work catalogued with the forename(s) and surname or recognised designation of an artist is, in our opinion, a work by the artist, e.g. NICHOLAS CHEVALIER Attributed to NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work of the period of the artist which may be in whole or in part the work of the artist.

Manner of NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work executed in the style of the artist but of a later date.

Studio of NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work by an unknown hand, which may have been executed in the studio of the artist.

After NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a copy of any date after a work by the artist.

Circle of NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work from the period of the artist and showing his influence. Follower of NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion a work executed in the style of the artist but not necessarily by a pupil.

Signed/inscribed/dated NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion the work has been signed/inscribed/dated by the artist. Bears signature/inscription/date NICHOLAS CHEVALIER ... in our opinion the signature/inscription/date are probably not by the. hand of the artist.

The addition of a question mark after any of the cataloguing terms in the above glossary indicates an element of doubt. The term 'ascribed to' may in certain cases be used to denote a traditional attribution based on style. A work catalogued as 'School' accompanied by the name of a place or country and a date mean that in our opinion the work was executed at that time and in that location, e.g. Dutch School, circa 1700. All reference to signatures, inscriptions and dates refer to the present state of work, i.e. as at the time of inspection for the purpose of cataloguing.

The use of onverted comas around the name of an artist, or date, in connetion with a signature, or inscription (ie. signed “Nicholas Chevalier”) indicates that the signature, or inscription, may have been added by another hand.

Artist’s Resale Right From mid February 2006 living artists are entitled by law to receive a resale royalty each time their work is resold by or to an art market professional. From 1st January 2012 the Right has been extended to include sales of works by artists who have died within the last 70 years (following the existing term of copyright). Royalties will be payable to the families and beneficiaries of these artists. An art work must be resold for more than 1,000 Euros to qualify for the right. The rates payable are calculated as a percentage of the hammer price and are set out in a sliding scale from 4% to 0.25%. The charge is exclusive of VAT. The auctioneers reserve the right to pass all of the cost to the person buying the qualifying art work

JEWELLERY The contents of any gemmological certificates accompanying lots in this sale are not guaranteed by Duke’s Auctioneers and we cannot be held responsible for any disagreement over the contents of the certificates after the sale, or for a retrospective change in opinion by the certificate issuer. All weights and measurements provided are approximate only. Prospective purchasers should assume that all coloured stones sold by Duke’s Auctioneers have been treated unless otherwise stated to the contrary in the catalogue description. Stones are commonly treated to enhance their colour and clarity. Sapphires and rubies are commonly heat treated and emeralds commonly oiled. Jade/jadeite is often bleached, polymer/resin filled or dyed. Please contact Duke’s for more clarification on treatment in individual lots. Items containing rubies or jade/jadeite of Burmese origin are not permitted 172 for import by the USA.

Duke’s AUCTIONEERS SINCE 1823

CONDITIONS OF SALE Duke’s carries on business with bidders, buyers and all those present in the auction room prior to or in connection with a sale on the following General Conditions and on such other terms, conditions and notices as may be referred to herein.

(2) We shall, as agent for the seller and on our own behalf pursue these rights and remedies only so far as is reasonable to make appropriate recovery in respect of breach of these conditions

1 DEFINITIONS In these Conditions: (a) “auctioneer” means the firm of Duke’s or its authorised auctioneer, as appropriate; (b) “deliberate forgery” means an imitation made with the intention of deceiving as to authorship, origin, date, age, period, culture or source but which is unequivocally described in the catalogue as being the work of a particular creator and which at the date of the sale had a value materially less than it would have had if it had been in accordance with the description; (c) “hammer price” means the level of bidding reached (at or above any reserve) when the auctioneer brings down the hammer; (d) “terms of consignment” means the stipulated terms and rates of commission on which Duke’s accepts instructions from sellers or their agents; (e) “total amount due” means the hammer price in respect of the lot sold together with any premium, Value Added Tax chargeable and any additional charges payable by a defaulting buyer under these Conditions; (f) “sale proceeds” means the net amount due to the seller, being the hammer price of the lot sold less commission at the stated rate, Value Added Tax chargeable and any other amounts due to us by the seller in whatever capacity and however arising; (g) “You”, “Your”, etc. refer to the buyer as identified in Condition 2.

2 BIDDING PROCEDURES AND THE BUYER (a) Bidders are required to register their particulars before bidding and to satisfy any security arrangements before entering the auction room to view or bid; (b) the maker of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer conducting the sale shall be the buyer at the hammer price and any dispute about a bid shall be settled at the auctioneer’s absolute discretion by reoffering the Lot during the course of the auction or otherwise. The auctioneer shall act reasonably in exercising this discretion. (c) Bidders shall be deemed to act as principals. (d) Once made, no bid may be withdrawn. (e) Our right to bid on behalf of the seller is expressly reserved up to the amount of any reserve and the right to refuse any bid is also reserved.

12 AGENCY The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by sellers or buyers.

VALUE ADDED TAX Value Added Tax on the hammer price is imposed by law on all items affixed with an asterisk or double asterisk. Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing by law at the date of sale and is payable by buyers of relevant Lots. *VAT payable at 5.00% on the hammer price and 20% on the buyers premium.

6 PAYMENT (1) Immediately a Lot is sold you will: (a) give to us, if requested, proof of identity, and (b) pay to us the total amount due in cash or in such other way as is agreed by us. (2) Any payments by you to us may be applied by us towards any sums owing from you to us on any account whatever without regard to any directions of you or your agent, whether express or implied. (3) The Auctioneer may require a deposit of 5% of the hammer price immediately. If the buyer is unable to meet this requirement to the Auctioneer’s satisfaction they reserve the right to cancel the sale immediately. 7 TITLE AND COLLECTION OF PURCHASES (1) The ownership of any Lots purchased shall not pass to you until you have made payment in full to us of the total amount due. (2) You shall at your own risk and expense take away any lots that you have purchased and paid for not later than 3 working days following the day of the auction or upon the clearance of any cheque used for payment after which you shall be responsible for any removal, storage and insurance charges. (3) No purchase can be claimed or removed until it has been paid for. 8 REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES (1) If any Lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, we, as agent for the seller and on our own behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract; (b) to rescind the sale of that Lot and/or any other Lots sold by us to you; (c) to resell the Lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs).

THIRD PARTY LIABILITY All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation and security arrangements. Accordingly neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason of our negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to or at a sale.

10 COMMISSION BIDS Whilst prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular Lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we will if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so save where such failure is unreasonable. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made. 11 WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you that the seller is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims.

13 TERMS OF SALE The seller acknowledges that Lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the Lot. 14 DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (1) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 “information to buyers”. (2) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation. 15 FORGERIES Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the Lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the Lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale. 16 GENERAL We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person. (1) any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of these Conditions and any exclusions provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as appropriate. (2). Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may themselves enforce them. (3) Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail or Swiftmail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting. (4) Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing at the commencement of the catalogue. (5) Any indulgence extended to bidders buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect. (6) English law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions. 16 DEBIT AND CREDIT CARDS Due to problems with fraudulent debit and credit card transactions payments over the telephone cannot be made for invoices totalling more than £200 unless the Buyers are known to Duke’s. Payment can be made in person using a chip and pin number, bank transfer, cash up to £9,000, or cheque (allow six working days for clearance).

Intending purchasers are asked to instruct their bank to contact the Auctioneer’s bank (Natwest, 49 South Street, Dorchester) as early as possible, to confirm clearance in writing up to a stated maximum amount to ensure that a cheque will be accepted on sale day. A Banker’s Draft, a Building Society cheque or cash will be required to allow removal of goods on sale day. Purchasers may not otherwise remove goods until their cheques are cleared by the Auctioneers’ bank. Live Bidding Duke’s Auctioneers offer an online bidding service via the-saleroom.com for bidders who cannot attend the sale.

THIRD PARTY LIABILITY Any person or his personal property at or on the auctioneers premises, before, during, or after the auction, shall be deemed to be there at their own risk and will have no claim against the auctioneers in respect of any injury sustained, or accident which may occur. IMPORTANT NOTICE TO BUYERS OF FURNITURE All items are held at the risk of the Buyer. If they are not removed within 5 working days of the sale the Auctioneers will instruct a carrier to remove them to storage. The Buyer will be responsible for paying the aforementioned carrier all charges incurred and for making arrangements in advance for the removal of items from their store after payment of their charges on production of our reciept for the items. IMPORTANT NOTICE TO BUYERS OF WILDLIFE MATERIAL Property made of or incorporating (irrespective of percentage) endangered and other protected species of wildlife, including but not limited to, ivory, tortoiseshell, crocodile skin, rhinoceros horn, whalebone and certain species of coral, together with Brazilian rosewood, may require permits or certificates (e.g. a CITES permit) from the relevant regulatory agencies to be exported or imported. Prospective purchasers are also advised that some countries prohibit altogether the importation as well as exportation of such materials. Accordingly, clients should familiarise themselves with the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to bidding on any property with wildlife material if they intend to import the property into another country. Please note that it is the client’s responsibility to determine and satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws or regulations applying to the export or import of property containing endangered or protected wildlife material. The inability of a client to export or import property containing endangered or protected wildlife material is not a basis for cancellation or rescission of the sale.
